You may have heard of XBRL and wonder if there is any connection to SOX section 302 and 404. Well, the answer is ….yes. XBRL, eXtensible Business Reporting Language, is a global electronic information format designed to transmit and store business information in a machine readable format.
The XBRL tags are part of taxonomies developed by market constituents, publicly available and license free. Taxonomies consist of financial concept definitions in which each business concept is defined and assigned a relationship to other concepts. Companies are required to ensure their tags are accurate and consistent. XBRL processes should be a well-integrated part of your 302 and 404 financial evaluation process.
This course outlines the various impact of XBRL on SOX sections 302 and 404 and provides valuable insight into how to prepare for those impacts and learn how to address them in detail.
Information within this course comes from readily available public domain documents and is utilized by the trainer as a supplement for relaying the course content.
Note: The concepts outlined in this course are up to date and relevant in regards to the Sarbanes-Oxley legislation. Although there have not been any changes in the legislative concepts of the law since it’s release in 2002, some aspects of executing the work have evolved. This speaker is preparing a series of courses titled “Sarbanes-Oxley 20 years later”. Those courses can be found individually on the platform and would be beneficial for anyone involved with compliance.

(Internal Auditor - Finance at Republic Finance)
Course concepts were presented in a clear and well organized manner. Slides presented the main points of the material. The instructor was knowledgeable and offered valuable personal insight. The only problem I had were the reverences to another, preliminary, XBRL course which is not included in the certification.

(SVP Accounting and Internal Control)
The course was necessary but not exciting. Important to note that those responsible for handling SOX need to look at it from the perspective of management's responsibility for ICFR. One shouldn't say that it isn't required because the external auditor does not require it.

The prerequisite requirements were not clear before taking the course. The course was excellent in covering details for those directly involved with the XBRL process. Those indeirectly involved may have found the course contained more detail than they needed.

This is a great overview of XBRL - I found it very technical having not covered the topic before but still managed to understand enough to pass the test. Lynn's presentation was clear and demonstrated her expertise in this area.

It was very well structured, well-paced and easy to follow training course. Structuring the course in segments as well as offering a continuous play option is perfect for any learning style. The examples given were good.
Brenda Dugan
(Financial Controls Compliance Manager at United Community Bank)
Excellent overview. Lynn offers controls to consider for XBRL as this process impacts the accuracy of ICFR. One update needed regarding third party service organization reports - SOC 1 replaced SSAE 16 Reports.

There was a lot of good information in this course. One concern I had with this section is I did not see where I had access to the XBRL training that was referenced in the course.

Really good coverage on a topic that is often overlooked. Very thorough and she makes it interesting. The course is broken down into groups of info that make it digestible.

This could have been a good topic, but is outdated and doesn't reflect current regulations (i.e. posting on website, attaching as exhibits, etc.). Needs a complete rewrite.

What I did not like of this course is I could not see the presenter as in the other courses. For me it is important because that way I feel like I'm taking the class live.

This course is good, but it goes away after one year if you do not give a review. So, they force you to give a review for the sake of keeping the course after one year.

I liked the fact that this had been divided into quite small sessions. I did not take the suggested basic course but that could have been useful. Very good training.
